Mine was imported from the UK too with 12k miles. Here in California they haven’t let me register it because it had no emissions label. Please let me know if you can help. Its from 04.

Man I've no idea, only labels I remember is the one under the seat with the colour code and one on the swingarm with tyre pressures.

yeah its a great bike, I'm glad I bought it

For sure man, you won't be disappointed with it 👍

Yeah man well said, it has a lot of character that's for sure.

Thanks very much✌️

Thanks man and I'm too attached to the yam to sell it, definitely will be making more videos with it.

Thanks very much, I appreciate the nice comment

Because the TL1000 is a big Stone with more KG= Useless. Hornet 600 1999 performs like a 120hp bike, so if you don´t have a 140-150-160hp bike, better to stay with your Hornet because the change will be worse... (and im not counting the weight of these 140-150-160hp bikes)

@@Big1_ Why would i stay with my hornet? 😄 I like the low end torque of my tl. And: the weight difference between the two is not big. TL has more HP pr Kg. The weight difference is only 15kg. So each kg of extra weight has about 1,5hp hp to drag it along. In addition the tl has almost double the torque of the hornet. The hornet has basically no power below 7000rpm, whilst with the tl you can easily pass cars with just reving it up from cruising @3000rpm. But if your idea of a good bike is something you have to crank up to near 10.000rpm to get it to move fast, hey, each man to his own. I'd take an sv650 over the hornet any day as usable torque is way more important for a good ride than max Hp.

@@suprlite TL scks dude, more vibrations, consumption, weight... And 0-100kmh Hornet 600 is faster... Do whatever you want, it´s your money and your life!!

@@Big1_ naaah, you suck.

Cheers, you too.

Sounds good man enjoy it.

I keep mine under a cover, the JDC super heavy duty. Best I've ever used. It's a tad on the heavy side but you have to compromise to allow for the protection from the elements it gives.❤

@@Saxondog ended up using a bit of elbow grease and patience to get the little bit of corrosion cleaned up. Bike looks great. I still keep my bikes in the garage.

Thanks dude, appreciate it.

@@iride1999 Of course man! I'm thinking about getting an MT-03 for my first bike. Would you say it was a good first bike?

Yeah man absolutely, I couldn't have asked for a better one honestly, thats why I'll be keeping it, too attached to it to sell haha.

Cheers man 👍

Yeah man it's just a great all rounder

@@iride1999 could you recommend any frame sliders for it? I'm having trouble finding some for the front on the engine mount

@@ssproductions790 I bought some from barracuda but the bolts it came with don't fit the original nuts on the bike which is a pain, haven't tried any other brands.

@@iride1999 thanks, ill look into them unless I get another recommendation from a friend

The Hornet 600 accelerates faster, the only good about the 900 is the little bit more torque, but more weight, more consumption and all this for only +12hp. Hornet 600 is better.

Yeah man, when it gets up in the revs it moves.

@@iride1999 best of both worlds. Hopefully I’ll buy one tomorrow it’ll be an old one but it’ll be a good start.

Best of luck, I hope its a good one

That sucks to hear, that bike was so nice looking, is it in really bad shape?

Yeah the hornet is very manageable, it has a low centre of gravity making slow manovers pretty easy, I'd say even easier than my 300cc bike which feels a lot more top heavy. But it's true I've done my full test on the mt07 and that's the easiest bike I've ridden by far with the torque that engine has low down its very nice around town. The only gripe I have with the hornet is the gears can be a bit clunky at low revs so best to rev it a bit. And I'm using a purple panda mic. Cheers.

That awesome, hornet is a great bike, well worth fixing.

Thanks for the comment man, yeah the 900 is a beast, I'm wondering myself if it's a good upgrade after the 600

How's the 919 seat, is it comfortable?

@@nicenow25 not bad i think because I got skinny bony ass. they sale after market seats

thanks bro, yeah for sure lets meet up sometime, sadly i totalled my hornet and few months ago i crashed again so im waiting to buy another bike soon.

@@iride1999 well hope your okay bud. My 191 duke 390 got stolen in town 5 days before Christmas recovered it with a tracker the insurance company only this week got their shite together so should be on the road soon ✌️

Yeah wish the hornet had vtech

i've got the cbf600 (the hornet is the cb600f) and for me the cb400 is estheticaly a mix of the hornet and my bike. I love the 3 of them too but i have never tested the cb400sf

Sorry dude I bought the bike with the windshield and can't find it anywhere now

Yeah very true it can be thirsty.

Yeah man cant recommend this bike enough, has plenty of character and always just works, I use it as a workhorse and for fun on the weekends and it never lets me down. They not expensive either.

Haha I just watched the rest of the video, you had the craic alright! 😅

Im not sure, I bought the bike with the screen and cant find it online im afraid.

I'm 180cm and I can flatfoot both feet with bent knees you should be grand .

@@iride1999 thanks for answering my friend all the best to your channel

The cb1000 is a monster man I can only imagine what that feels like, and I feel really awkward talking to a camera so can't agree that my commentary is the best😂

@@iride1999 trust me mate well all enjoy it

@@iride1999 I watch this vid several times a day and your reactions mate are epic. We need more mate. Upload more. You don't over talk like some other yts. You just keep it relevant. Your mannerisms go with the type of video your doing. This and your other Honda vids plus your mt-03 vids are done so well that I want a cb600f now. So thanks for uploading mate. How's the cb600f seat is it comfortable? some say after 300km of riding it's not

Yeah bro I've done more than 400kms at one point and yeah the ass does go numb, not the worst thing ever though

@@iride1999 thanks for that. Do you reckon I start off on the same bike or a ninja 250r because your throttle control, bike control and blipping on down shifts is amazing. I want to ride like that and wonder can I ride at your cb600f speed and hone my skills taking my time on the hornet or should take the 250 route? I'm also 36 years old, have 21 years experience driving and only ridden a few bikes, had some training when I was 11 years younger but I want that throttle, clutch and front brake coordination so bad. The trainer and all my mates tell me to start on a naked 600cc, I want to but I want to be humble.

If your lightly cruising you should get around 240km from a tank, I had to ride over 200km after I bought it and hadn't even put the reserve on. Thats over 7l/100km if my math is right.

Hey man, nice buke! I wish u safe travels! What about the consumption in a city? Would u suggest it as an everyday bike?

Not sure about the consumption in the city, haven't ridden it enough in the city yet to know. But yeah it seems great for everyday riding, very easy to manage and comfortable enough.

Yeah wise words 🫡

Absolutely not, these engines are great for everything, great for the city and even better on motorways, smooth and reliable. If you only commute in the city, then something like and mt07 might be better because of that low down torque.

4 inline is good for town/city, it doesnt vibrate like a disgusting 2 cylinders like the Mt07, which with only 72hp consumes the same fuel as the Hornet 600 or more ( 5.5-6 liters per 100km) Buy a 4 cylinders.

Thanks

@@iride1999 Can I have one

I am from Egypt

Cant say, right after I got the bike I put a led headlight in it, didn't get to ride at night with stock lamp.

@@iride1999 Can you tell please what led headlight you bought? want to do the same thing

@@sandorcsurgay8003 www.motea.com/en/led-headlight-7-for-honda-hornet-900-600-s-headlamp-drl-craftride-black-a029660-0?gclid=5h0pp1n9-en&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwLKFBhDPARIsAPzPi-IFWXuCyr6_uaeLb-uUzjtDoe9vJwFWgAQV1sLF6wGrVZiZnqhQ_GcaAqCfEALw_wcB heres the link to the one that i bought, theres a few different styles to choose from. And keep in mind you need to buy the bucket to hold it and special connector to fit the hornet as its not included.

good stuff man those are rare

@@iride1999 ye man one of them came stock with dual exhausts and i have yet to see one with dual exhaust stock since i think it was the first one in the country

95

Haha that never occurred to me. Twas my destiny to have hornet 599 and 599 subs haha ;D

Depend your riding style and road objectives... Riding this bike everytime at least at 8000 rpm launch the fuel consumption at 8-9 liters or more.

@@Big1_ buy a er6 or cb500 if you're concerned.

@@N269 I have a CBR 1100XX and the CB 600 Hornet from 1999. I don´t these eco-toys

About 220 I'll say

Yeah but this one is a year older and it's mine making it a million times cooler.

Sure is
